title: [Criteria of choice in prosthetic surgery of laparocele].
abstract: The employment of prosthesis in abdominal plastic surgery for incisional hernia has contributed to a remarkable improvement in the results of this surgery. The current use of PTFEe, according to the Authors experience, proves to be effective. Both satisfactory functional results and evident aesthetic advantages are obtained. The Authors report their experience in the treatment of the median incisional hernia also by means of a polypropylene mesh. The latter was shaped in a very original way thanks to a technique borrowed from plastic surgery. The complete mobilization of the ombilicus, by a circular incision, allowed the Authors to insert this prosthesis symmetrically under the rectus abdominis muscles for the entire extension of the incisional hernia.
